Q: Predictive Text

the "predictive text" worked great after upgrading to iOS 8 on my iPad Retina Display. Now, 2 days later, it's not there. Why?

 

Thanks

    It looks like I answered my own question. The little whit dash above the keyboard needed to be touched so the predictive text works. :-) yay! I really like this feature!

    When I first downloaded ios8 the prediction would come up as 3 words between the keyboard and the window.  Now it's gone.  I've tried touching the white dash there and it acts like a magnifying glass.  Help!

    Tap and hold the globe symbol to the left of the spacebar on your keyboard.  In the pop-up that opens, turn the slider next to Predictive to on.

    I had an iPhone 4S upgraded to iOS 8.1 and my predictive typing was and still is fine! Then i bought an iPhone 5S and the predictive typing is not anymore the same. When i had the 4S i saw something about learning the way you're writing (other non-supported language/dictionary) , looking up your mail and social networks to memorize the words you need in your own language and it's actually still working on 4S , but not on the 5S. Is there any option to do on 5S to have the same predictive words i have on 4S. For example: The keyboard is English , but i am writing in Bulgarian. I am starting to write a word and predictive shows me the word correctly or in the way i had written it before or in jargon , still works the predictive for english words. It shows me only on the iPhone 4S , not on the 5S.

    Please Help!...
